Canopy Growth focuses on delivering value for shareholders through an unparalleled market strategy which now includes operations in eight countries as well as a licensed domestic growing platform of 2.4 million sq. ft. This domestic production capacity is planned to increase to 5.6 million sq. ft. by the end of the calendar year to meet demand from the recreational market following legalization, as well as the rapidly expanding global medical cannabis market.

Here’s to Future Growth in the Big Apple.
